I found a huge dungeon in the basement. Within this dungeon are dazzling jewels, valuable resources, and dangerous adventures waiting, and finally the players are required to choose between stability and adventure in front of the resting place you got.


Of course it is OK to explore the underground dungeon and make a base in the basement.


Players can make use of the villagers with various characteristics while building the village, to protect the village from barbarians and expedite within the dungeon.
